Our methodology
Online Live Learning
- Join live online sessions where you can ask questions, collaborate with peers, and get feedback in real time. Cohorts work well for learners in Greece, with schedules aligned to Europe/Athens time (EET/EEST) whenever possible.
Self Study
- Part Time: 9 hours live learning + 11 hours self study (20 hours per week)
- Full Time: 22.5 hours live learning + 17.5 hours self study (40 hours per week)
Flipped Classroom Method
- Prepare with guided materials before class, then use live time for discussion, exercises, and problem-solving. This approach helps you learn actively and build confidence faster.
Guided Practice
- Expect a strong focus on doing: hands-on exercises, lab work, and portfolio projects. You’ll practise with instructor support so knowledge turns into real capability, not just theory.
